Solve for v:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"v%5E2-v%2F2+=+5\"$ First, multiply through by 2 to clear the fraction.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2v%5E2-v+=+10\"$ Now subtract 10 from both sides.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2v%5E2-v-10+=+0\"$ Factor the trinomial.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%282v-5%29%28v%2B2%29+=+0\"$ Apply the zero product rule.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2v-5+=+0\"$ or $\"v%2B2+=+0\"$
\n" ); document.write( "If $\"2v-5+=0\"$ then $\"2v+=+5\"$ and $\"v+=+5%2F2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "If $\"v%2B2+=+0\"$ then $\"v+=+-2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Solutions:
